willyp123 Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 Hey guys, I'm keen to get some luminescent limpets for a tank (http://www.landcareresearch.co.nz/resources/identification/animals/freshwater-invertebrates/guide/no-jointed-legs2/molluscs/limpets/luminescent-limpet) Any idea on how to get them/where/how to best keep them?

blueether Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 Find a cold, bush clad stream and start your search there. They like cool water that is well oxygenated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
